(Quality-3) Source Mktg Category Stability Product Requirement Default action automatically saves a backup copy of the file based on number of changes or time elapsed and automatically recovers the users work environment when the apllication has been terminated anomaly. Customer Need/Problem Automatically saving a copy as the default will lessen the likelihood that a crash will cause a user to lose a substantial amount of work if emergency would not be able to save modified document. Comment - Eng Effort - Eng Owner Frank Loehmann Product Concept Introduce new ?AutoRecovery? function with the possibility to configure the saving time frame. ?AutoRecovery? recovers all SO applications (including all documents, cursor and window positions) exactly to the previously saved state. The user will get the same work environment he had before the application has terminated. User will be informed using dialogs. Functional Specification - Restoring documents will happen regardless if documents were modified when SO has been crashed. - Restore current application setting (default saving dialog, Picklist) - Default of option is on, default time period is 10 minutes (0=emergency saving only), saving the data will hapen in background. - Furthermore SO tries to make an emergency save of all modified documents in the moment when SO crashes. - These emergency saved documents will be restored in favor when SO recovers, if they are not present (hanging app/system, power blackout or defect emergency file, the previously recovered docs will be used instead - Latest AutoRecovery doc will be kept until the moment of successfully restoring the emergency saved documents - Saving a document always updates (withdraws) the emergency saved information for this doc. - Recovery information will be used on startup if the application has been abnormaly terminated before (hanging app, protection fault or blackout) - Think about integration of document repair function and error report wizard of CJ.
